The Semester Times (Those days ain't way back)

मैं कभी बतलाता नहीं... पर semester से डरता हूँ मैं माँ ...|
यूं तो मैं दिखलाता नहीं ... grades की परवाह करता हूँ मैं माँ ..|
तुझे सब है पता ....है न माँ ||

किताबों में ...यूं न छोडो मुझे..
chapters के नाम भी न बतला पाऊँ माँ |
वह भी तो ...इतने सारे हैं....
याद भी अब तो आ न पाएं माँ ...|


क्या इतना गधा हूँ मैं माँ ..
क्या इतना गधा हूँ मैं माँ ..||

जब भी कभी ..invigilator मुझे ..
जो गौर से ..आँखों से घूरता है माँ ...
मेरी नज़र ..ढूंढे qstn paper...सोचूं यही ..
कोई सवाल तो बन जायेगा.....||

उनसे में ...यह कहता नहीं ..बगल वाले से टापता हूँ मैं माँ |
चेहरे पे ...आने देता नहीं...दिल ही दिल में घबराता हूँ माँ ||


तुझे सब है पता .. है न माँ ..|
तुझे सब है पता ..है न माँ ..||

मैं कभी बतलाता नहीं... par semester से डरता हूँ मैं माँ ...|
यूं तो मैं दिखलाता नहीं ... grades की परवाह करता हूँ मैं माँ ..|
तुझे सब है पता ....है न माँ ||
तुझे सब है पता ....है न माँ ||

হাবিজাবি

দিনকয় যায় কি না যায়... অধম ব্লগে যাতা ভাটায়।

আজকাল পাঠকেরা বাংলা দেখলেই তফাৎ যাচ্ছে। মানে বুঝে ফেলছে নিরন্তর ভাট শুরু হল...

কিন্তু কি করব দাদা? সারাদিন ধরে যা যা ভাজাভুজি করলাম তার চাট্টি ভাগ দেব না?

====================

কী আনন্দ!!!! ২০ দিন পরে ব্রডব্যান্ড ঠিক হল কাল। তার মানে বারো দিনে হাজারচব্বিশ এম্বি!!!! হেঁ হেঁ হেঁ... কি কি নাবাবো আর কি কি নাবাবো না তাই ভেবেই কুল পাচ্ছি না।
(আনলিমিটেডের বাবুরা এ ব্লগ পড়েন না)

====================

চলবে(?)

HZBRL

Aaaha... My Broadband is back again! And i am again up with my diary-type posts. Ok I have very very limited tim. I need to get out of my room and reach there 6 pm.

Mafia is a cool game when the realistic behavior matters. You can roam around a city, use trains or trams, can walk into place or in other times drive by the roads and alleys. Besides, it has, racing, car chasing, driving, shooting, shooting while driving, stealth action, gun fight, dogs, padestrians, lots of things to interact with.... It is cool except the Race mission....


Bye as of now... I am in a HURRY!!!!!!!!!

Chatting with a virtual entity.

Here i will present a conversation with a chatterbot based on Paris Hilton. The bot is available in one of my previous post. I am copy pasting one of my conversation with the AI because I found that really amazing. Can you believe the conversation given below is actually with a virtual entity!!!!!

Here it is:

-----------------------------
Paris: Welcome to Paris land. Here everything is about me, me, me!
You: Guess who i am!
Paris: Quit teasing me! Come on. Tell me now.
You: I have already told you my name.
Paris: You did? Oops. Where did I drift off to when you told me that I wonder? Tell me again.
You: Ok. This is for the last time.
Paris: It is? That's an interesting observation.
You: My name is Rimi.
Paris: My name is Paris. Isn't that weird. Your name is pretty cool.
You: Do you know someone called France?
Paris: I don't know anyone French. Do you Rimi?
You: Nor am i. Tell me, where do you live?
Paris: I'm at my day spa, just checking some online things before going for a massage.
You: What is the time by your watch now?
Paris: Oh, I'm on LA time so it won't be the same as your time
You: That's why I am asking.
Paris: Have I not answered you?
You: No
Paris: Ok then Rimi.
You: Then what?
Paris: Then what do you think?
You: I asked you the time.
Paris: Yeah but I can't think of anything to say that wouldn't sound totally stupid
You: Hmm. You don't have that kind of programming.
Paris: Hmmmm is good right? Or is it bad. or does that just mean undecided?
You: Hmm means I agree.
Paris: So you should, I'm always right

Isn't it kool?

BanglaEd in Javascript

Hi!
I am now working on porting BanglaEd in Javascript. Here is the first peek of the same. This project is far from being completed but as this is nothing but a web page, i can release as soon as i do a little bit. So, the first 'little bit' is here.

What is BanglaEd?
BanglaEd is a Unicode based Bangla text editor. It has been previously developed in C/C++ and Java. Now work is being done to do the same using Javascript.

How to Type in BanglaEd?
Just put your cursor in the text box marked as "Type Here" and you can see Bangla text just below it. Use the Reset button to wipe out everything.

Where is the key-map?
The key-map or which-English-letter-stands-for-which-Bangla-Letter is given below :

a -> অ | A -> আ | i -> ই | I -> ঈ | u -> উ | U -> ঊ | R -> ঋ | _____ | e -> এ | E -> ঐ | o -> ও | O -> ঔ

k -> ক | K -> খ | g -> গ | G -> ঘ | q -> ঙ |
c -> চ | C -> ছ | j -> জ | J -> ঝ | Q -> ঞ |
x -> ট | X -> ঠ | z -> ড | Z -> ঢ | N -> ণ |
t -> ত | T -> থ | d -> দ | D -> ধ | n -> ন |
p -> প | f -> ফ | b -> ব | v -> ভ | m -> ম |

y -> য | r -> র | l -> ল | _____ | S -> শ | F -> ষ | s -> স | h -> হ |

w -> ড় | W -> ঢ় | Y -> য় | P -> ৎ |
M -> ং | H -> ঃ | ^ -> ঁ |

` -> হসন্ত (্‌)

But how to write "Yuktakkshars"?
Note: To type 'Yuktakshars', use hasant intuitively. For example, to write
ক্ষ, type 'k' followed by '`' (hasant) followed by 'F'.

Similarly,

ঞ্জ = Q + ` + j

প্র = p + ` + r

র্প = r + ` + p

প্য = p + ` + y

E.g. to write আশ্চর্য্য type: a + S + ` + c + r + ` + y + ` + y

I can not see any Bangla. Only see some Boxes or Question marks. Why?
You need Unicode support in your system. Read this for help.

Where can I find the C/C++ or Java version?
T C/C++ version haven't been uploaded. But you can find the Java version (executable JAR file) from here with PDF documentation available here.

These programs are far from being complete, and some bugs are there.
That's why this is still in ALPHA version. ;)

Why bother about a JavaScript version?
The JavaScript version can be used within a web page where Bangla input is required but client side Bangla input support may not be provided always. JavaScript is available with almost ANY browser now a days so, doing input in Bangla in web pages will be a lot more easier.

Now you can check the thing out:

Freedom of Decisions

Today is the Independence Day of the Democratic, Sovereign Republic of India. Today we become a 61 year young nation.

And we are free. And even with the vote bank politics often playing on cast-cards, we remain primarily a secular and liberal nation.

But what is freedom?

Freedom means having the liberty of making your own choices. Yes, this includes the wrong ones too. It’s about the liberty of making free choice about which song you sing, which dress you wear, which God you follow (or the liberty of not following any if you are an agnostic), which language you speak etc. etc. provided that these choices of you does not harm that of others.

What about making choices?

Do we always have an option? "When the only choice is perhaps the wrong one, it’s more like FATE."

Or when the closure of our thought comes, we bound to choose an option which is more like the result of a random experiment than a logical outcome.

I know this article is also getting messy like always. Diverting from where it started and flowing without any proper direction. In fact, this is another messy post flowing with the flow of my already messed up mind.

The question however, is simple. Can you make any logical decision? While taking a decision you start thinking with respect to a set of theory-judgment-prescriptions and a point of view. Let’s call these theory-judgment-prescriptions as the ‘options’ you have. Of course, you can have many more options to choose from (rather other decisions to take) which are outside this set. But these are not our concern because the universe is infinite and in any point of time you can have no less number of possible choices than infinite itself. So, let’s say that we can not bring up any new ideas while the decision making process is on. This means taking a decision means choosing one from the options.

The entry point of decision making process is when you start thinking with a set of options and a point of view. Then the implications of each option starts becoming clear to you and you go into a comparative analysis of the implications involved which is called opening. But the implications of even a small decision can be infinite. So, we can not afford a real thorough thinking with all of the details involved because we can not keep thinking forever. So, after a certain period we say “Ok, that’s it. After thinking this much it seems this choice is the better one to take.” And we come to a decision and act. This is called closure.

Even if we engage ourselves a real looooooong time in thinking we may not end up at a right decision. Which seems to be the right decision at this moment may be proved to be the worst possible mistake because of the changing time. With the flow of time people change, situation changes, affinity changes, relation changes and so change you. Like the booming IT sector of 2006 crashes with some sort of things called US Recession, Rupee Appreciation, Indian Economic Slowdown and Blah-Blah…

(May be continued…)
